Our Lecturers

The lecturers on the Executive MBA HSG programmes are executives and entrepreneurs. Their experience means that they are familiar with the demands of a rapidly changing business environment. Or to put it another way: our teaching staff don’t lock themselves away in ivory towers, they work in industry and teach with a focus on industry practice.
